Documentation and Discipline
Your company culture is partially shaped by the behaviors you do and do not tolerate. Is this aspect of your culture as robust as you want it to be?
Correcting and changing poor employee behavior is not easy; it takes professional courage and knowledge of good processes to make it legally defensible. This can be especially difficult when a portion of your workforce is suddenly working remotely.
Documentation of the disciplinary process is a crucial factor in being perceived as fair, having taken the right actions, and defending yourself.
This webinar focuses on steps of a progressive disciplinary approach:
- When should an employee be written up?
- What steps are appropriate?
- What should be said and done at each step?
- How do you discipline and document behavior for employees working from home?
This webinar will help you be more confident and effective in working through the steps of this area of your responsibility.
